​First Impression

Süd-Ansicht zum Garten

The yard is impressive in and of itself, and this house knows it. The home as been situated on a corner of the lot, allowing the lawn to extend generously in front of it. The structure is horseshoe shaped, hugging a central patio. This design ensures that the patio space remains protected from wind, creating a hassle-free location for picnics in the summer.

​The patio

Patio mit Übergang Innen- zu Außenraum

In the creation of this home, the architects placed a major emphasis on the celebration of the family lifestyle – cooking, dining, and spending playtime together are the hallmarks of this design. This friendly wooden patio not only soaks up the sun, but also enjoys a friendly dialogue with the kitchen through large windows, and with the second floor balcony above.

​Kid's room

With a strong focus on family life, this design includes a prominent children's room, which enjoys the prime location inside of this wooden extension. Sunlit, lofty, and upbeat, this children's area is sure to cultivate a sense energy and playfulness.

​Kitchen

Küche mit Ausblick zum Garten

This kitchen is the definition of streamlined! The design is simple, modern, and sleek, with special attention given to floorspace, counter space, and ease of movement around the island, to and from the dining room, and to the picnic patio as well (accessible through sliding glass doors).

​Living room and dining room

Essplatz mit Sitz-Fenster und Feuerstelle

The living room and dining room enjoy a seamless connection, with a warm wood-burning stove giving off heat to both halves of the space. In a design like this, the open layout encourages participation and communication, as it's easy to see and hear what's going on throughout the open concept main floor.

​Natural decor

Introvertiertes Familienbad mit Oberlicht

The bathroom offers a breath of fresh air with the natural wood details that fill the space. The wicker baskets, beautifully smooth bathroom shelves, and small table by the tub all contribute to a natural, spa-like atmosphere in this modern bathroom.

Bannister and bookshelf

Atop the stairs, the bannister also serves a dual purpose, not only providing a partition to keep people safe, but also a lengthy bookshelf for keeping clutter from accumulating at the top of the stairs. These clever compact designs are a metaphor for the closeness and sense of coexistence of a busy family lifestyle in this family-centric home.
